Theanine Gummies

L-Theanine is an amino acid naturally found in green tea. Scientific evidence shows that Theanine stimulates the brain's production of alpha waves, making the user feel relaxed but alert and not drowsy. Alpha waves are the brain waves associated with a meditative state.

Theanine also helps the body produce other calming amino acids, such as:

• L-Dopamine:

  • Is an important neurotransmitter in the brain, essential for proper brain functioning.

  • Is critical to the way the brain controls our movements.

  • Controls the flow of information between areas of the brain, especially memory, attention and problem-solving tasks.

  As dopamine is released we experience feelings of enjoyment and become more motivated to do, or continue to do activities.

  Without enough dopamine we feel fatigued, depressed, and experience a lack of drive and motivation.

• GABA:

  A non-essential amino acid which functions as an inhibitory calming neurotransmitter in your brain

  Other benefits of GABA include:

  • May reduce symptoms of alcohol withdrawal.

  • May improve relaxation.

  • May help maintain healthy blood sugar levels.

  • May help suppress appetite.

  • May help with premenstrual symptoms.

  • May help alleviate stress, frustration remorse and tension.

• Tryptophan:

  An essential amino acid needed for proper body functioning. It naturally increases the serotonin levels in the brain & body.

    Taurine acts as a neurotransmitter in your brain where it is the second most abundant amino acid. Taurine plays a variety of roles in the normal functioning of the brain, heart, gallbladder, eyes, & vascular system.

    Research shows Taurine has the ability to help maintain & support:

    • Cardiovascular health it is the most important & abundant free amino acid in your heart & contributes to your heart muscles' contractility & regulation of its rhythm.
    • Calmness & healthy sleep patterns it is an inhibitory calming neurotransmitter. Inhibitory neurotransmitters are responsible for calming the mind and body, by filtering messages, slowing down the system, and inducing sleep.
    • Modulation of the immune system by re-invigorating the natural killer cells of your immune system & to stimulate the release of the immune substance, Interleukin-1
    • Eye Health it is found in high concentrations in your eyes & is the most abundant amino acid in your retina.
    • Healthy cholesterol levels by assisting in proper bile production & fat metabolism.
    • Vegetarianism, Taurine is highly concentrated in animal & fish protein, this is why many vegetarians have low taurine levels.
    • Healthy blood pressure
